The drama is coming now

"Presented here is the first collection in more than three decades of the writings of one of America's finest drama critics. Richard Gilman chronicles a major period in American theater history - the 1960s to the 1990s - which witnessed the birth or spread of Off-Broadway, regional theater, nonprofit companies, and avantgarde performance, as well as growing interest in plays by women and minorities and in world drama. His writing, however, is more than a revealing look at an era. It is criticism for the ages."--Jacket.
